My vote for the greatest animal sculpture of all time.


The stunning statue above was created for and exhibited at the San Francisco, Panama-Pacific International Exposition in 1915. It is called Nations of the East, Court of the Universe. This amazing piece was created with the collaboration of the gifted A. S. Calder, who did the walking men, Fredrick George Richard Roth who did the elephant and camels and L. Lentelli who did the mounted horsemen. Breathtaking what great talent can do when it works together for a common cause.
